Additional Details

The 'JT' suffix in the part number likely indicates the tolerance rating, packaging type, or temperature coefficient. Typical specifications include a power rating (e.g., 0.125W or 0.25W), a voltage rating, and a temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR). The TCR specifies how much the resistance changes with temperature, usually expressed in parts per million per degree Celsius (ppm/°C). The resistor is constructed using a ceramic substrate with a resistive film deposited on it. The resistive film is laser-trimmed to achieve the desired resistance value. Terminations are typically made of nickel and tin plating for solderability.
